Strictly: Toyah Wilcox and Neil Jones are voted off show

Strictly Come Dancing's Neil Jones is currently living on a boat with his Love Island star fiancée Chyna Mills and their daughter Havana as they ave been unable to find a permanent home.

Chyna, 24, made the revelation during a Q&A on Instagram. Explaining they were avoiding complications from property chains she described the house hunting process as "hell".

The couple sold their previous homes with the intention of purchasing a new property together but are currently "in limbo" as their search for the right place has taken longer than anticipated.

"I sold my house so me and Neil could buy something together. Neil bought his boat before we got together and now its conveniently there for us to stay on while in limbo," she wrote.

"(Annoyingly) we just haven't found a house we like yet and I also didn't want to be in a chain because the process of buying a house is hell so hopefully we find something soon."

Admitting the boat was never intended as a long term housing solution for the family she said: "The plan was never to live on the boat. It was just supposed to be a holiday home and Airbnb for when we aren't using it.

The boat is currently moored but Chyna revealed the young family do plan to "cruise around" on it during the summer.

The trio spent their second Christmas together in their temproary abode and Chyna gave her followers an insght into their festivities.

"We had a relaxing time. We did Christmas morning here. I made dinner," she said.

"[Neil] was supposed to make pancakes, he was meant to wake up earlier than me to make them but he made bacon sandwiches and then we went to my families house.

Neil chimed in to the chat saying: "In the evening we played games, me and Havana had a nice swim. It was a really nice, wholesome, relaxing Christmas."

The Christmas season marked a brief break for Neil who will soon be taking to the road for the 2024 Strictly Come Dancing tour.

He was partnered with 80s music icon Toyah Willcox on this year's show butnthe couple found themselves voted off second.
